You may notice that all of the terms have a common factor: x. So, let's take the x out of all the terms. This gives us:

x(x^2 + 2x - 24) = 0


Using the Zero Product Property, we can say that both x = 0 and x^2 + 2x - 24 = 0.

Let's solve both. x = 0 is obvious, but we still need to solve our other term:

x^2 + 2x - 24 = 0

  • Set up

(x + 6)(x - 4) = 0

  • Factor

x = -6, 4

  • Apply the Zero Product Property

Our answer is x = -6, 0, 4.

A rectangle garden has a width that is 8 feet less than twice the length. Find the dimensions if the perimeter is 20 feet
Lana71 [14]

Width = 4ft

Length = 6ft

<u>Explanation: </u>

Let length = l ,

So, width = 2l-8

Perimeter of rectangle = 2x(length + width)

According to the question,

20ft = 2X(l + 2l-8)\\20ft = 2X(3l -8)\\ 10ft = 3l-8\\18ft = 3l \\ l = 6ft

Hence,

Width = 4ft

Length = 6ft
